So chiffon was a terrible idea.
In fact, chiffon is usually a terrible idea. Except that it’s always so pertty that it’s difficult to say no to.
Anyway, all that’s left is buttons!
I can’t decide what color buttons to use. Maybe cream colored ones so they don’t stand out so much? Or a darker shade of the pale mint green/blue? Or straight up brown ones? That might be too harsh.
Hmmmm. Thoughts?
Excuse the photo. I was having fun with a new phone app and simultaneously attempting to hide the currently wonky neckline with fake artistic-ness. Edited: Here you go, better photo!
In other news, Megan Nielsen is holding a sewalong for this dress. I’m considering participating because I’d love to make another one of these (Or three more. You think I’m kidding..). But then I realized that I just made most of one in a day. To be fair, if I had chosen a less bitchy fabric (like a nice cotton or linen), I most likely would’ve been done by now.
Maybe I’ll make one dress a day for the duration of the sewalong.
Only joking.
(I’m not though.)
The dress is looking really good. How about using the buttons that you cover with the fabric? I am not sure if that will work or not. I love the dress pattern and have ordered myself one :0)
